Frank Milkovich is a Canadian Transformers fan-turned-artist who has freelanced for IDW Publishing, Titan UK Magazine/Comics, and Fun Publications. He typically posts on Transformers-related forums under the name Crobot91.

Milkovich's first work appeared in the fan art section for Dreamwave's Transformers #0. A few years later, he was contracted by IDW to illustrate many characters in the Beast Wars Sourcebook. Subsequently, Milkovich has inked Dan Khanna's pencils for IDW's Spotlight: Doubledealer and Titan UK's Transformers Comic #18. He has also provided freelance services to Fun Publications for their Transformers Collectors' Club Magazine and G.I.Joe Collectors' Club Magazine. He continues to occasionally work on freelance assignments and commissions when he has free time from his career as an urban architect.

Beast Wars Sourcebook

Milkovich's art style in the Beast Wars Sourcebook has been the subject of negative critique, specifically for drawing characters as boxy, 100% mechanical beings with extra "tech" detailing indiscriminately covering every single inch of their bodies (including beast kibble!). His profile art composition is often distorted by the boundaries of his workspace, as arms and legs are forced to point inwards so the art can fit within the page. If there's a homogeneous sea of mechanical detail and the subject is squatting with both arms bending at the elbow towards the crotch, as if the robot is concealed in an imaginary box, you're probably looking at Frank Milkovich art.
